10. E-911

Our Guidelines require an exiting CLEC to unlock all of its telephone numbers in the E-911 database, consistent with the National Emergency Numbering Association's standards. This will allow any new local service provider access to its new end-users' E-911 records. An exiting CLEC must also submit a letter to the appropriate E-911 service provider at least 30 days prior to exiting the market authorizing the E-911 service provider to unlock any remaining E-911 records after the CLEC has exited the market. According to Applicant, no action is needed to unlock the E-911 database. Applicant explains that as a part of its standard business procedures, all telephone number records are unlocked and updated upon transfer into the appropriate E-911 databases. This will permit Applicant's customers to be properly transitioned to other local exchange services in accordance with the National Emergency Numbering Association's standards for Local Number Portability. Applicant has met our E-911 requirements.
